Mollie loves her Crutch!
The BIG news this week is that Mollie has an injury! For a few days she hobbled around with pained expressions and odd little noises and every time we visited Mum and Dad she would insist on using one of my Dad's crutches the whole time we were there. In exasperation we finally gave in and took her to A&E....that's the royal 'we' as usual - it was Steven who got the pleasure of a three hour visit to the hospital!
Much as we suspected the Doctor failed to find much for her to be complaining about....didn't even require an x-ray to make his diagnosis which was - 'a strained/sprained heel'!! Far from being chagrined or embarrassed by this slight on her suffering Mollie returned home triumphant because the kindly Doctor let her bring home a crutch!!
I suspect we will have to return to the Hospital at some point to have the crutch surgically removed from Mollie, she can't seem to make it further than 6inches without her extra appendage at the moment and the click-click-click accompanies her every movement! (Don't be fooled by her face in the photo - underneath that look of contempt she's grinning like the proverbial cat with a vat of cream!)
Back to catch up on HS:MS:HS again! Will I ever get organised enough to play along properly I wonder.....
Birthday....... undoubtedly my favourite birthday photo of all time has to be this one of my Dad's 60th.....(my Dad is officially the Best Dad/Grandad in the World by the way!)
Yes, there really are 60 candles on that cake and if you look carefully you can probably work out which end we started lighting them from!
and rain ... no problem finding that word in my space recently!

it can be really good but like the little girl with the little curl it can be horrid and slow and not do anythign you want to, so if u have a go please be patient!!!!!
My Daughter found a pair of crutches when we were out for a walk one day and I told her to leave them where they were. A week later they where still there so we let her take them home. She must have played with those crutches for years, hobbling round the house. We had to hide them in the end because she wanted to go out to the shops with them. Old ladies would say, “Ah, poor love, what’s wrong with her.” Maybe it’s a girl thing? Funnily enough she mentions the crutches sometimes and it always makes us laugh.
